The time required to perform liposculpture will vary considerably,
depending on the size of the area, the amount of fat being removed,
the type of anesthesia and the technique used.

There are several liposuction techniques that can be used to improve
the ease of the procedure and to enhance outcome.

Liposuction is a procedure in which localised deposits of fat are
removed to recontour one or more areas of the body. Through a tiny
incision, a narrow tube or cannula is inserted and used to vacuum the
fat layer that lies deep beneath the skin. The cannula is pushed then
pulled through the fat layer, breaking up the fat cells and suctioning
them out. The suction action is provided by a vacuum pump or a large
syringe, depending on the surgeon's preference.
If many sites are being treated, your doctor will then move on to the
next area, working to keep the incisions as inconspicuous as possible.

Fluid is lost along with the fat, and it's crucial that this fluid be
replaced during the procedure to prevent shock. For this reason,
patients need to be carefully monitored and receive intravenous fluids
during and immediately after surgery.
